Juliebun: I do too! We must shop at the same store. Also, I have several pair of flip flops with very ornate fringe around the edges that match my purse straps! Buns are great designers! They see opportunity for improvement everywhere. Hop to it Dougal!

I'm willing to bet Dougal has already learned the use of charge cards. He's just waiting for someone to come back and TRY to reclaim the purse. Do you fancy 7 lbs. of Dougal attached by his teeth to the back of your hand? Safety tip: change your ebay password asap.

Happy New Year, Fleetie. We have hung our pictures and are hoping for branes this year. As you suggested, this is a difficult game. In years past our babes were a little incredulous, but as time has passed their mathematical gifts have burgeoned and any day we expect mathematical proof that indeed something has a probability of zero, We are just hoping it won't be before this New Year's games. Happy games and branes to all!

Bailey says, "You claim that chair and make sure they know it is yours! Otherwise the humans will be moving it to another room/position or even ***GASP*** SITTING in it!! I've had to lay down the law a few times with my humans, but sadly they just don't understand the heirarcy of bun chair dominance"
